Re: Commitee?

See look at the discussion now on this thread if this is how stubbornly divided it is then a committee formed will fall down anyway.

Re: Commitee?

True, Accystanmac, and I don't want to sound like I'm arguing against myself, which I am as well, but face to face it's easier to come to a decision because presumably there'd have to be a Chair of the committee who would facilitate the final decisions.

Lol, exactly. It would be the same with choosing a name, the only thing we all agree on here is the right to disagree!:)

I'd pity the person who got lumbered with the Chair's job - that's a recipe for disaster, they'd become the most hated person around here - and there's a lot of competition for that job already.

Excellent point Garinda & i think that was on par with what the thread was really about, im sure if we have specific threads for like of the carnival, people can add their ideas & offers of help there & create a chart or list or something so people can add to whatever support & help they can offer.

Re: Commitee?

So does that mean that you would all prefer things not to be done in the name of AccyWeb?

That probably explains why no voluntary helping the community type stuff ever got off the ground then.

Re: Commitee?

Hey i did voluntry work in the community helping schools & CAB, so i think thats quite harsh, its not that people dont do anything for charity or in their community it just means there is no cause for a ruling body to do it.

Re: Commitee?

Er, accystanmac I was referring to the idea put forward some time ago by one of the members that AccyWeb should "do summat" to help the community as a forum.

I was in no way implying that individual members of the forum don't do anything off their own bat.

Re: Commitee?

To put a spin on it another way..... remember the dreaded poll tax?????

Which effected this town as much as anywhere - it was the power of the people whom acted against it to change a nationwide policy - not an organised committee but the power of people as a whole either singulary or as a group in all parts of the country, so do we need a committee to actually change something ????

Im sure people are too glad to help in whatever way they can and do that without expressed pressure from a forum.

Well like anyone else does word of mouth friends, family, support, & media, im sure they didnt have a chairperson 1st to be elected to do that, then they arrange between themselves as what to do next as mutual consencus no doubt as part of a group.
